The crowd watched the Pathfinder's every move through binoculars.
At first everything was normal, and as it was nearing the Mysterious Island, the steamboat suddenly disappeared into thin air.
A cry of alarm rang out from the bow of the ship, and the Master-General ordered the searchlights to be turned on, and several beams of light searched back and forth over the surface of the sea, with the result that nothing was to be found.
Not to mention the boat, there wasn't even a crumb, the sea was as calm as ever, as if nothing had happened.
"Nephew Li, what's going on?" Master General asked in a low voice.
Liamu frowned in disbelief, he wasn't sure what was going on.
It's also his first time visiting this mysterious place. Why do people disappear instantly? You ask him, who is he going to ask?
Shen Xingyue suddenly said, "I can probably guess why."
The bow of the boat immediately quieted down, and the General hurriedly asked, "Please tell us, Miss Shen, I'm all ears."
"Master Handler, they may have been sucked into magnetic space."
"Sucked into magnetic space?"
"Yes, as you have seen the magnetic lines change, there must be a twisted magnetic field in the vicinity of this island, and anyone and anything that can be captured by it will be sucked into the magnetic space, and where it goes, well, no one knows."
The crowd seemed to understand, and did not know whether she was right or not, the General asked, "Miss Shen, is there any way to crack it?"
"Yes, Master Put, you send two more martial artists to scout the way, tell them not to carry any metal and row a life raft over, I expect that this time, they won't encounter any danger."
Master Handle understood and immediately ordered two more martial artists to go.
The two men removed all metal objects from their bodies before setting off, paddling their inflatable life rafts as they slowly approached the island.
The crowd had been watching them closely until they boarded the island and waved in this direction, then they let out a sigh of relief in unison.
Each family began to prepare to board the island, metal objects are not allowed to carry, such as excavators and other high-tech products, naturally lost its use.
On the Fengle, Shao Danzhou said bitterly, "Gentlemen, I've had my teeth set in, what should I do?"
"Knock it off!" Master Handler replied painfully.
Shao Danzhou straight grin, he played small teeth are not good, a mouthful of small white teeth, can have half of them have been tampered with, if all knocked out words, this crime can be suffered greatly.
But for the sake of wealth, you have to knock even if you don't want to, screams rang out from the various ships, all of which were martial artists who didn't meet the requirements and ruthlessly knocked out their dentures.
Liamu was creeped out by the sound, he couldn't stand to see dental treatments, especially the sound of an electric drill, geez, it made his scalp tingle just thinking about it.
It's really a case of knocking your teeth out and swallowing them in your stomach. You haven't even seen the treasure yet, but you've left a trail of blood first.
When the families were ready, they lowered the life rafts from their boats one by one.
Each family put out twenty martial artists, plus the descendants of the Chu family, totaling two hundred and five people, divided into ten life rafts and headed towards the Mysterious Island.
Along the way, everyone kept their mouths shut and gazed nervously ahead, and the only sound that could be heard in their ears was the sound of the oars paddling the water.
When approaching that dangerous area, the crowd was even more afraid to breathe, fearing that they too would disappear.
Luckily, there were no accidents, and the group made it to the island without any danger.
A bonfire was lit on the shore, and a single torch was lit.
For safety reasons, lighting tools such as searchlights and powerful flashlights were not brought.
A magnetic field defeated all modern technology and they had to resort to the most primitive form of illumination.
Several families agreed to leave two martial artists each to guard the ships, and the rest of them, as a whole, set off.
Shao Danzhou had a lot of heart and mind, and gave a secret gesture to his two men, who understood and took the lead towards the depths of the island.
Li Mu's eyes were sharp and he hurriedly shouted, "Don't act rashly, all actions..."
Bang, bang, two muffled sounds came from the distance, the two martial artists suddenly went berserk, hitting their heads against the rocks, and died in the blink of an eye.
The crowd was shocked, and Shao Danzhou covered his mouth and muttered, "What's going on here?"
Li Mu stomped his foot and said loudly, "Everyone, have you forgotten who accompanied the Lin Family's old ancestor to hide the treasure in the first place?"
The one who accompanied the Lin family's ancestor to hide the treasure?
Duan Xiongnan said, "It's the Shen Clan's old ancestor, Brother Li, do you mean to say that there is a protective formation on this island?"
"There must be, what happened to those two brothers is the evidence, everyone, everyone must not act privately, we are walking with the Shen family, we have them to protect us to ensure safety."
The crowd came to a sudden realization, and the General immediately said, "Everyone listen up, no unauthorized actions, and those who disobey orders will suffer the consequences!"
No one dared to move again, and everyone surrounded the Shen family in the center, following them step by step.
The third aunt took the map, walked a little, paused, walked a little, paused again, and from time to time consulted with the second and fourth brothers, and did not travel very fast.
Fortunately, there were no more accidents, and the journey wasn't far, it didn't take long for the group to arrive at the foot of the mountain.
Third Auntie said to Li Mu, "Son, accompany me up to have a look!"
"Okay, let's go up first!" Li Mu responded.
"Hold it!" Master Shogun shouted.
Then he said to Cross Mountain Wind, "Lin Sheng, you go up and take a look as well."
Neither the Third Aunt nor Li Mu said anything, and the two of them climbed vertically towards the top of the mountain, with Crosswind following closely behind them.
This mountain peak's visual height was around three hundred meters, for them martial artists, this height was nothing at all, it didn't take long to climb to the top of the mountain.
Crossing Mountain Wind was the last one to reach the top, and when he saw Third Auntie and Li Mu standing on the edge of the mountaintop without moving, he subconsciously had to go inside.
Li Mu yanked him and scolded him in a low voice, "Are you blind and dare to barge inside?"
Crosswind froze for a moment before he noticed his feet, and just by looking at them, the sweaty hairs on his entire body exploded.
Only less than a meter ahead was a huge hole that covered almost the entire top of the mountain, and inside the hole was filled with thick fog, with arcs of electricity flashing from time to time.
If Li Mu didn't give him a hand, he would have surely stepped on one foot and fell straight down from the cave entrance.
"Thanks for reminding me, Shiyun, Mister Zhao was abrupt!"
Over the mountain wind this thank you from the bottom of his heart, people actually save him once, so, grudges two clear, his heart of hate instantly melt most.
Li Mu waved his hand, signaling that there was no need to be polite, and crouched himself down by the hole, probing and peering inside.
Cross Mountain Wind wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked Third Auntie, "Third Sister, what's going on?"
"I don't know, according to the map's labeling, the entrance is here, just, where does this look like the entrance?"
"Third sister, are these thick mists an illusion born from the illusion formation?"
"You kinda get it, but let me tell you, no, this is fog, and those lightning bolts are real, these are naturally occurring things, not illusions."
Li Mu stood up and said to them, "I'm not sure why it's generating electricity, but the fog has a lot of salt in it and is highly conductive, so you have to be well insulated before you can go down there."
"Nephew, is the entrance down there?"
"It must be down there, I heard a wind beneath the fog, there must be a passageway down there, and I dare conclude that that passageway is the entrance."
When the three men returned to the bottom of the hill and explained the situation, many of them were a bit dumbfounded.
For them, going down the hole is no problem, going through the grid is.
After all, no matter how high the martial arts skill is, it can't hold up to electric shock, as long as the voltage is enough, any expert will die, even Little Brother Li is no exception.
Lin Wan laughed, "This is a good thing to do, do you guys have any diving suits with you?"
"What does Mrs. Lee mean?"
"Waterproof suits are insulated, so don't bring your oxygen tanks, hold your breath through the salt spray belt, and you'll be safe at the bottom."
As Master Put led the call, Lin Wan reminded, "Remember, everyone, when you put on your glasses, wrap your head with an insulating cloth and don't expose your skin."
Each family rushed to arrange for people to go ahead and prepare.
For this treasure hunt, several clans were well prepared.
I had prepared a number of diving suits in anticipation of the possibility of underwater work, and they came in handy.
After the things were brought, the people began to change their clothes, a few women could not easily change with them, so they went to the top of the hill, and after changing their clothes, they were the first to go down to the bottom of the cave.
The others changed into their diving suits and climbed to the top of the mountain together, seeing the ropes tied to the boulders and knowing that Lin Wan and the others had gone down.
Without delay, the group tied up a few more ropes and descended to the bottom of the cave in batches.
The bottom of the cave was large, the floor covered with rubble and coral, and the fishy smell of seawater was overwhelming; it looked like it had been submerged in seawater not too long ago.
In the distance, a natural passage appeared in front of the crowd.
The women weren't at the bottom of the cave, they should have gone into the passage.
Worried about their safety, Li Mu quickly changed into his costume, tugged on Grandpa Four, and took the lead in rushing into the passageway.
After running a few hundred meters and noticing a vague firelight up ahead, Fourth Grandpa called out, "Third Sister, is that you guys?"
"It's us, come over here you guys, the entrance is right here."
The brigade followed one after another, and the party followed the passage to the end.
The eyes opened up, and at the end of the passage another large cave appeared, with ten huge stone statues that stood in the depths of the cave.
The stone statues are of various shapes, facing inwards and outwards, in a semicircle.
Strangely enough, each stone statue was bald and faceless, and on each of its bare heads, a word was carved.
Li Mu held up the torch and looked closely, then realized that each word corresponded to a surname, and ten stone statues corresponded to ten families, so this must be the place where the ten dragons gathered.
He said to the crowd, "The uninvolved people step aside, and ask the family heads to go and stand under the corresponding stone statues."
Everyone except the nine family heads retreated to the side.
Li Mu ordered again, "Bring the descendants of the Chu family here."
Under the drive of two Feng Clan martial artists, a young man reluctantly came before him.
Li Mu said amiably, "You go and stand under the stone statue of the Chu family, don't worry, there is no danger."
"Can you guarantee it?" The young man asked uneasily.
Without waiting for Li Mu to answer, Cross Mountain Wind scolded, "Brat, let you do what you're told to do, where is all the nonsense, is your cheap life worth as much as the nine family heads?"
